Executive Order 5491 of November 18, 1930

Providing for Appointments To and Inclusion Of the District of Columbia Municipal Service in the Civil Service

The Commissioners of the District of Columbia and the United States Civil Service Commission have agreed that it would be in the interests of good administration to make appointments to positions under the Government of the District of Columbia after tests of qualifications.

The United States Civil Service Commission is, therefore, authorized to apply the principles of the Civil Service Act and Rules, as far as may be done without incurring additional expense, by certifying to the Board of Commissioners the names of eligibles from appropriate registers established for the federal service, such certifications and appointments to be made under regulations agreed upon by the Board of Commissioners and the United States Civil Service Commission. Appointments and promotions to the Metropolitan Police and Fire Departments are already made in accordance with the Civil Service Act and Rules, as provided by statute.
